A Day in(doors)

Continuing the success of a locally created performance project, & our regular Place Podcast, we are running a regular series of interviews with a broad range of people from our community to discuss how they are coping through the lockdown.

If you want to share your experiences of how lockdown is continuing to change your daily lives, the ways you work, or how you and your family are responding to the situation please drop us an email podcast@theplacebedford.org.uk

We really want to hear from as many people from across Bedford to capture a snapshot of life here in 2020. Please reach out!
